EMBODIMENTS FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION

Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
First, a power-supplying device for a vehicle according to a first embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment of the invention. FIGS. 2A and 2B are side views illustrating the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment of the invention.
The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment of the invention can supply electric power to a vehicle 10. The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment of the invention includes a power-supplying primary coil 21 and a vehicle stopping member 30. The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment of the invention may include the power-supplying primary coil 21, the vehicle stopping member 30, and a driving circuit 50.
The vehicle 10 is a movable body which can receive electric power. For example, the vehicle 10 is a car which can receive electric power. The vehicle 10 may include a power-supplying secondary coil 22 which can wirelessly receive electric power from the power-supplying primary coil 21.
For example, the power-supplying secondary coil 22 which can wirelessly receive electric power from the power-supplying primary coil 21 may be provided on the lower surface of the vehicle 10.
The power-supplying secondary coil 22 wirelessly receives electric power from the power-supplying primary coil 21 which is provided below the power-supplying secondary coil 22. At that time, for example, magnetic resonance wireless power supply, electric resonance wireless power supply, or electromagnetic induction wireless power supply is performed.
The power-supplying primary coil 21 can wirelessly supply electric power to the power-supplying secondary coil 22. The power-supplying primary coil 21 is provided in a parking space in which the vehicle 10 is parked and can wirelessly supply electric power to the power-supplying secondary coil 22.
When an electric current flows to the power-supplying primary coil 21, the magnetic field is generated in the space and an electric current is induced by the magnetic field in the power-supplying secondary coil 22 which is placed in the magnetic field.
For example, when an alternating electric current flows to the power-supplying primary coil 21, the magnetic field is generated in the space and an electric current is induced by the magnetic field in the power-supplying secondary coil 22 which is placed in the magnetic field.
The parking space is, for example, a horizontal concrete floor.
The vehicle stopping member 30 stops the vehicle 10 at a desired position of the parking space such that the vehicle 10 can be stopped at the position where wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high. Hereinafter, the vehicle stopping member 30 will be described in detail.
The vehicle stopping member (Example 1) 30 includes a wheel stopper 31 and a wheel stopper moving mechanism 32. The wheel stopper 31 is provided in the parking space, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper 31 is provided on the runway S in an orientation in which the rotation of the wheel is prevented, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 can move the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction.
For example, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 is an actuator which moves the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction. For example, a mechanism which converts the rotation of an electric motor into a rectilinear motion using a ball screw can be used as the actuator.
For example, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction on the basis of the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
As a result, it is possible to stop the vehicle 10 at the position where wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high.
The vehicle stopping member (Example 2) 30 includes a wheel stopper 31, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32, and an acquisition member 33.
The wheel stopper 31 is provided in the parking space, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper 31 is provided on the runway S in an orientation in which the rotation of the wheel is prevented, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 can move the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction.
For example, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 is an actuator which moves the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction.
For example, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction on the basis of the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
The acquisition member 33 acquires positional information corresponding to the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
For example, the acquisition member 33 is a detector which detects the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10. For example, the detector captures the digital image of the entire vehicle 10, performs image processing to calculate the relative position of the wheel and the power-supplying secondary coil 22 in the image, and multiplies a coefficient for converting the distance in the image into the actual distance to convert the distance into the actual distance (positional information) between the wheel and the power-supplying secondary coil 22. In addition, when the type of the vehicle 10 is known in advance, the distance (positional information) between the wheel and the power-supplying secondary coil 22 may be measured in advance, may be stored in the acquisition member 33, and may be retrieved.
The wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction on the basis of the positional information acquired by the acquisition member 33 and the positional information of the power-supplying primary coil 21 provided in the parking space.
For example, when the wheel of the vehicle 10 comes into contact with the wheel stopper 31 and is stopped, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction such that wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high.
For example, when the wheel of the vehicle 10 comes into contact with the wheel stopper 31 and is stopped, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction such that the power-supplying primary coil 21 faces the power-supplying secondary coil 22.
The vehicle stopping member (Example 3) 30 includes the wheel stopper 31, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32, a storage member 34, and an information acquisition member 35.
The wheel stopper 31 is provided in the parking space, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper 31 is provided on the runway S in an orientation in which the rotation of the wheel is prevented, comes into contact with the outer circumference of the wheel of the vehicle 10, and stops the movement of the vehicle 10.
The wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 can move the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction.
For example, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 is an actuator which moves the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction on the basis of the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
The storage member 34 stores the vehicle type information of the vehicle 10 and positional information corresponding to the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10 so as to be associated with each other.
The information acquisition member 35 receives the vehicle type information of the vehicle 10 and acquires the positional information associated with the vehicle type information from the storage member 34.
The wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction on the basis of the positional information acquired by the information acquisition member 35.
For example, when the wheel of the vehicle 10 comes into contact with the wheel stopper 31 and is stopped, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction such that wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high.
For example, when the wheel of the vehicle 10 comes into contact with the wheel stopper 31 and is stopped, the wheel stopper moving mechanism 32 moves the position of the wheel stopper 31 in the front-and-back direction such that the power-supplying primary coil 21 faces the power-supplying secondary coil 22.
The driving circuit 50 drives the power-supplying primary coil 21. For example, the driving circuit 50 supplies electric power to the power-supplying primary coil 21 and drives the power-supplying primary coil 21. When the driving circuit 50 supplies electric power to the power-supplying primary coil 21 and drives the power-supplying primary coil 21, the power-supplying primary coil 21 generates the magnetic field. When the driving circuit 50 appropriately drives the power-supplying primary coil 21, it is possible to wirelessly supply electric power with high efficiency.
Next, a power-supplying device for a vehicle according to a second embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 3 is a perspective view illustrating the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment of the invention.
The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment of the invention can supply electric power to a vehicle 10.
The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment of the invention includes a power-supplying primary coil 21 and the vehicle stopping member 30.
The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment of the invention may include the power-supplying primary coil 21, the vehicle stopping member 30, and the driving circuit 50.
Since the vehicle 10, the power-supplying primary coil 21, and the driving circuit 50 have the same structure as those in the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment, the description thereof will not be repeated.
The vehicle stopping member 30 stops the vehicle 10 at a desired position of a parking space such that the vehicle 10 can be stopped at the position where wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to a power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high. Hereinafter, the vehicle stopping member 30 will be described in detail.
The vehicle stopping member (Example 4) 30 includes the acquisition member 33 and an instruction member 36.
The acquisition member 33 acquires positional information corresponding to the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
For example, the acquisition member 33 is a detector which detects the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10.
The instruction member 36 instructs the driver of the vehicle 10 which enters the parking space on stop timing on the basis of the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 acquired by the acquisition member 33.
For example, the instruction member 36 includes a sensor which detects the position of the vehicle 10 and an audio device.
For example, in the instruction member 36, when the position of the vehicle 10 detected by the sensor is aligned with a desired position, the audio device outputs a "stop" sound.
For example, when the driver hears the "stop" sound from the audio device and the wheel is stopped, wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high.
For example, when the driver hears the "stop" sound from the audio device and the wheel is stopped, the power-supplying primary coil 21 faces the power-supplying secondary coil 22.
The vehicle stopping member (Example 5) 30 includes the storage member 34, the information acquisition member 35, and the instruction member 36.
The storage member 34 stores the vehicle type information of the vehicle 10 and positional information corresponding to the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 provided in the vehicle 10 so as to be associated with each other.
The information acquisition member 35 receives the vehicle type information of the vehicle 10 and acquires the positional information associated with the vehicle type information from the storage member 34.
The instruction member 36 instructs the driver of the vehicle 10 which enters the parking space on stop timing on the basis of the position of the power-supplying secondary coil 22 corresponding to the positional information acquired by the information acquisition member 35.
For example, the instruction member 36 includes a sensor which detects the position of the vehicle 10 and an audio device.
For example, in the instruction member 36, when the position of the vehicle 10 detected by the sensor is aligned with a desired position derived from the acquired positional information, the audio device outputs the "stop" sound.
For example, when the driver hears the "stop" sound from the audio device and the wheel is stopped, wireless power supply efficiency from the power-supplying primary coil 21 to the power-supplying secondary coil 22 is high.
For example, when the driver hears the "stop" sound from the audio device and the wheel is stopped, the power-supplying primary coil 21 faces the power-supplying secondary coil 22.
Next, a power-supplying device for a vehicle according to a third embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 4 is a perspective view illustrating the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the third embodiment of the invention.

The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the third embodiment of the invention includes the power-supplying primary coil 21, the vehicle stopping member 30, and a vehicle support structure 40.
The power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the third embodiment of the invention may include the power-supplying primary coil 21, the vehicle stopping member 30, the vehicle support structure 40, and the driving circuit 50.
The vehicle support structure 40 is, for example, a pallet in a mechanical-parking station. In general, a plurality of vehicle support structures 40 are provided and can be moved with the vehicle mounted thereon.
For example, the power-supplying primary coil 21 may be provided in the vehicle support structure 40 or in a parking space. The parking space is, for example, the internal space of a building in a mechanical-parking station (a fixed side when the vehicle support structure 40 is moved). When the power-supplying primary coil 21 is provided in the parking space, a hole through which magnetic flux passes is formed above the power-supplying primary coil 21 of the vehicle support structure 40 in the parking space. Therefore, the vehicle support structure 40 does not interfere with the magnetic field generated by the power-supplying primary coil.
Since the vehicle 10 has the same structure as that in the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment, the description thereof will not be repeated.
Since the main portion of the structure of the power-supplying primary coil 21 is the same as that in the power-supplying device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment, only different points will be described here. The power-supplying primary coil 21 can wirelessly supply electric power to a power-supplying secondary coil 22 which is provided in the vehicle 10 supported by the vehicle support structure 40.
